Truth or Busted London
Author(s): Adam Sutherland
Truth or Busted's London title explores popular myths and legends, sayings and notions about the city in a light and humorous way that kids will find unputdownable! Such statements as 'You're never more than 10 feet from a rat' or 'A glass of London tap water has already passed through 9 other people' are examined, as well as where the ideas originally came from, whether they have any basis in truth, or whether they are simply myths. Each statement is given a TRUTH or BUSTED evaluation. Truth or Busted: London is a great companion for Londoners, visitors to the city or the simply curious!
